This blog is all about words because they matter, they influence, they entertain and when you put them down on a page in a meaningful order, they acquire permanence. Contained here are a bunch of written words in the form of book reviews, magazine and web article links & summaries and other stuff I like to write about. Published a compilation book of blog posts and currently aiming to read and write on two books a month.

Favorite Olympic Writing So Far

There's quite possibly been better pieces that have been and are still to be written on the London Olympics, but a few have stood out to me so far for the subject covered and/or excellence of prose.

Wherefore the blog?

Fascinating question. Well, I hope so since I both posed the question and am writing this thing. Simple answer is that the point is to write about writing I find... well, interesting.

Result of the work is a repository of information about some great writing along with my thoughts on the writing as a portfolio of sorts and indicator of what things important or at least interesting to me.
